No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or any related technologies, and the device description is not available.

Yes
The device is designed for "temporary stimulation of the heart in case of rhythm disturbances and conduction defects," which directly treats a medical condition.

No
The device is described as an external pacemaker for temporary stimulation of the heart in cases of rhythm disturbances and conduction defects, which is a treatment not a diagnosis.

No

The device description is not found, but the intended use clearly describes an "external pacemaker," which is a hardware device.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is designed for "temporary stimulation of the heart". This is a direct therapeutic intervention on the patient's body, not a test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Mechanism of Action: While the "Device Description" is not found, the intended use describes the device's function as "stimulation of the heart". This implies an electrical or other physical interaction with the heart muscle, not an analysis of biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.

Therefore, the PACE 101 H external pacemaker is a therapeutic medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 870.3600 External pacemaker pulse generator.

(a)
Identification. An external pacemaker pulse generator (EPPG) is a prescription device that has a power supply and electronic circuits that produce a periodic electrical pulse to stimulate the heart. This device, which is used outside the body, is used as a temporary substitute for the heart's intrinsic pacing system until a permanent pacemaker can be implanted, or to control irregular heartbeats in patients following cardiac surgery or a myocardial infarction. The device may have adjustments for impulse strength, duration, R-wave sensitivity, and other pacing variables.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special controls for this device are:(1) Appropriate analysis/testing must validate electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) within a hospital environment.
(2) Electrical bench testing must demonstrate device safety during intended use. This must include testing with the specific power source (
i.e., battery power, AC mains connections, or both).(3) Non-clinical performance testing data must demonstrate the performance characteristics of the device. Testing must include the following:
(i) Testing must demonstrate the accuracy of monitoring functions, alarms, measurement features, therapeutic features, and all adjustable or programmable parameters as identified in labeling;
(ii) Mechanical bench testing of material strength must demonstrate that the device and connection cables will withstand forces or conditions encountered during use;
(iii) Simulated use analysis/testing must demonstrate adequate user interface for adjustable parameters, performance of alarms, display screens, interface with external devices (
e.g. data storage, printing), and indicator(s) functionality under intended use conditions; and(iv) Methods and instructions for cleaning the pulse generator and connection cables must be validated.
(4) Appropriate software verification, validation, and hazard analysis must be performed.
(5) Labeling must include the following:
(i) The labeling must clearly state that these devices are intended for use in a hospital environment and under the supervision of a clinician trained in their use;
(ii) Connector terminals should be clearly, unambiguously marked on the outside of the EPPG device. The markings should identify positive (+) and negative (−) polarities. Dual chamber devices should clearly identify atrial and ventricular terminals;
(iii) The labeling must list all pacing modes available in the device;
(iv) Labeling must include a detailed description of any special capabilities (
e.g., overdrive pacing or automatic mode switching); and(v) Appropriate electromagnetic compatibility information must be included.

Re: " K970497 Trade Name: PACE 101 H; External Pacemaker Regulatory Class: III Product Code: 74DTE Dated: February 7, 1997 Received: February 10, 1997

Dear Ms. Doskocil:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Druq, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Requlations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Good Manufacturing Practice for Medical Devices: General (GMP) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic GMP inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP requlation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
